Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Marmot Paceline Jacket

I stumbled upon this jacket from Marmot which appears to be cycling specific. Does anyone have any experience with this jacket from a cycling perspective. It appears to have alot of good features: waterproof, breathable, ventilation, compresses to a small size... I'm not sure how close fitting the cut is though or if the back panel extends down in length. Wondering if anyone has any insights on this one. thanks

You cross-posted the exact same message at the same time. That's bad etiquette. Post in one forum first and if you don't get answers then post in the other.

Why is that so? Are you so worried about cyber litter or something?

Honestly, I don't know why I said that. Bad day at work or something. Plus the times I've been yelled at for doing it started ringing in my head, just continuing the cycle?

I don't know much about the jacket but I own a Marmot DriClime jacket that I love. I have a bit longer arms and it fits me pretty well, for what it's worth.

Bikes: More than I need, really.

The thing with Jackets is that there isn't just one for all weathers. The longer you stay in the sport, the more different jackets you'll acquire for all the different levels of dampness, chill, wind, locusts.

I have (at last count) nine different jackets, and none of them are alike.

So buy this one, but know that, like most cycling purchases, it's only the beginning.
